Seem to be getting a coating of fuzzy white fungus or mould everywhere. It looks like the stuff that grows on drift wood for a while when you first have it. I'm.assuming this is caused by the still water and excess of nutrients??!!

I did a large water change and tried to waft most of it off. I have put an airline in to create a bit of water movement. Not too much though because the red root floated won't like it.

I've added more red root floaters and a echinodorus ozelot red. The hair grass seems to be doing well and the white fuzz is getting better. I seem to have adopted what i thought were pond snails but they don't look like pond snails.

Really pleased with my parameters. Shrimp seem happy. I never see the MTS i hope they are ok! The hygrophila is nearly emergent. I put the LED back in because the plants seem to grow faster. There is still a little fuzz after water changes but nothing to bad.
